A perfect beach day...kids running around, surfer's waiting for the "great one", birds overhead. Lots of sunshine and the beautiful Atlantic...what more could we ask for? I think this gentleman was asking for just a little more, but as far as I could tell, no luck! There is always tomorrow.

I think waterbirds are so interesting to watch. Here in Florida we have such a large variety of them. I would not attempt to name them all, but I'm pretty sure this is an egret, maybe even a Snowy Egret. I think they are one of the prettier birds around and when they have their plumes up they are almost as showy as a peacock.
I enjoyed painting this little piece, especially layering on the thick creamy paint on his back. Almost as good as eating ice cream!Purchase here

The owner of the Etsy site, Dandeliondecor gave me permission to use her image. The teapot is no longer available but I am happy to have this painting.

I was attracted by the wavy lines, the beautiful china roses and the sweet curvy handle. The painting is soft and subtle, but it catches my eye every day as I walk by it. Yes, one of the perks of being an artist, is lots or original art on your walls.
Several years ago I did lots of still life teapots and flowers and food items. I am getting in the mood to return to these subjects.

I hope you enjoy this daily painting today and I hope you will pin it.

Living close to the sea, I find it turns up in my painting in both a representative and non-representative form. I guess this little daily painting falls somewhere between the two.

I painted this with a palette knife. I like texture and feel it adds additional interest to my art. I was thinking about the beautiful greens and blues of the tropical waters off the coast of Florida. Further south they turn the most amazing shades of azure, but that will be another painting.

I use to live on the beach in Old Orchard Beach, Maine USA. The sunrises were the most spectacular that I have seen and this was only one of many. This image was captured with my camera one summer morning at 4:30am; the colors amazing. Enjoy.

I met this little guy in North Carolina, following around his master who was doing some shopping. It was obvious how much this little guy loved his human and I found him to be an appealing subject.
